I'm so grateful that you guys like this interview!
As I prepped for it, I thought of the HN community and said, "Those guys heard all about the Lean Startup methodology. How the hell am I going to bring them anything new and make it useful for them?"
I almost psyched myself out by worrying about it. Then I put HN out of my mind completely and tried to just focus on the material.
That's why I'm stunned & appreciative that you like. Thank you.
The other thing I'm noticing is that guests trust me more. Founders who aren't as experienced as Eric will let me spend up to an hour pre-interviewing them so we can hunt for the right ideas to include.
Interesting. Well, you've built up a lot of authority over the years. That they trust you more, has been well earned.
I'm baffled by the 'pre-interview' concept.
Would love to see a candid 'behind-the-scenes' (video) peek at your process, without giving too much away. Maybe tiny interviews with your team even. Passion multiplied!
Excellent interview content-wise, and a very professional looking production. I didn't even mind the ads; it reminded me of listening to Mike & Mike on ESPN radio :) Lean definitely makes sense, and I will be checking out more of your site.
